check out my 4x4 thread theres pics in there you need to remove the bottom half of the coloumn (a bit tricky) and there is a kit on ebay to run the ecu on the coloumn of a dial that you can set to how sensitive you want the steering to be

ive seen the control box but tbh ill probably just wire up the speed signal so it runs as it should.
ive compared the columns and the corsa c one is a lot longer if you leave all them uni joint things on the end, is that the part to remove and refit the original nova section to clamp on?

yes thats the bit you remove but not fit the nova part just remove the middle bar and replace the end un joint you will have to wire it up through a gearbox sensor and rev counter

Not sure about the fitment of a Corsa C column but the Corsa B one is a relatively straightforward fit.

do you have a pic of the end of your column after youve removed the part? do you mean split the pins out of the joints , use the ends and refit the pin?

im using corsa b hub carriers with abs sensors and corsa pick ups for a speed reading to the z20let ecu.
